I recently purchased a 406 ELT, I previously had an EBC ELT mounted beside the L/H passenger side window. I need to install a small shelf to mount my 406 in the tail. The issue is I have a Selkirk extended baggage modification, which prevents me from mounting the ELT , on the floor just aft of the s...

Where you on straight skis , ? or wheel skis ?
Was the differance a positive differance ?

One questiuon, ?
Are the C-170 "lady Legs" stiff enough for skis , or wheel skis ??
( I was told they probably are not ?? ) Which is why I switched to 180 gear on my 170B.

I am doing a Falcon 10 initial , so good flight control feed back, but no fy by wire on the Falcon 10 ?

Hi George, I really do not want my 170 exposed to spins.Transport Canada, Private Licence requires spin training. That was why I made the comment, about him doing the spin training on a C 172. I really think Ryan ( My son ) will be a bit better pilot learning on the 170. The instructor has just over...

My Son is doing his private licence on our C-170B, we were chatting about some of the differences, between learning to fly on a nose wheel vs a tail wheel aircraft. The question which came up, was what sort of percentages, or numbers of pilots earn there licences on a tail wheel aircraft these days ...

Hi Keith, I have a push button start, on my O 300D engine set up. I like it, for the reason you state, mags off andf you can motor the engine for a few seconds before starting, if the Ac has not flown for a week or two. I believe my push button is just wired to the starter relay, and that is the onl...

Thanks John, Now I have ; gasket pn 652072 tach drive oil seal pn642714 alternator oil seal ES4142 alternator brushes E4118 drive coupling pn632050 All as 500 hr service for the alternator. I am going to do it about 60hrs early, as the Mag 500hr inspection is coming up as well in 60 hrs. John

Thanks Kurt,
Good point, the coupling, do you know the part number ??
I have just over 400hrs on the alternator, so I was thinking of just changing the brushes,
once I had the Alternator off.

Thanks George, Tach seal pn 642714, gasket pn 652072. That is great thanks. I can call Aero Tech, on Monday, I am hoping to get the alternator oil seal number part number, so that I can order it locally in the Toronto area, to avoid shipping costs and delays, I am guessing the shipping would cost mo...

Yes, and remove the tach assembly tro use the complete gasket !

My C 170B , O 300D, with a Ford Alternator , ( DFO_____? ) has develpoed a static oil leak. I am on the road until Wed night, so I have no access to my manuals. Does anyone know the part number of the oil seal which I believe goes on the Alternator, which I believe, is the likely cause of the static...
